Comparative Analysis of Different TCP Variants in Mobile Ad-Hoc Network

Ad-Hoc Network is an autonomous group of mobile users that communicate using wireless links with no support from any pre-existing infrastructure network and used as a highly reliable end-to-end protocol for transporting applications. But in wireless networks suffers from significant throughput degradation and delays. It uses Congestion Control and Avoidance algorithms which degrades end-to-end performance in wireless system. In this paper we have analyzed the performance of tcp algorithms with AODV, DSR and TORA for throughput. The effect of throughput on the TCP variants New Reno, Reno and Tahoe with different node scenarios was studied.
